Duncombe: The Chase (Upper Elementary)

By Richard Walters

• Music inspired by hunting horn calls is common in the 18th and 19th centuries.
• Begin practice hands separately and slowly.
• Prepare for the change of hand position in the left hand, moving from measure 8 to 9.
• Practicing C-major arpeggios in both hands would help master this piece.
• The most challenging section for most will be measures 9–11, where the hands are close together.
• Use no sustaining pedal.
